Bridging the NYS English Language Arts Learning Standards ~ Transition from Grade 11 to Grade 12The intention of this tool is to provide a template for discussion and planning as students transition from the 2019-2020 school year to the 2020-2021 school year. In this instance, the 11th grade teacher will comment on the 2019-2020 ELA curriculum relating to that year’s instruction; the 12th grade teacher will use this information to plan to meet the needs of all learners for the 2020-2021 school year. Each standard includes an image of an instructor ()? and an image of a laptop? () to indicate if the standard was taught in the classroom or remotely. Circling or deleting the images will best indicate the method of instruction for that standard during the 2019-2020 school year.?
